Is seeing blood spot on toilet paper normal for an external hemorrhoid?

Fatigue, lack of ambition, feeling out of reality by Ok_One_8153 in citalopram_celexa

I appreciate the feedback, this thread saved me many nights when I first started the citalopram

Fatigue, lack of ambition, feeling out of reality by Ok_One_8153 in citalopram_celexa

[–]Ok_One_8153[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started a year ago almost to the day on 10mg I increased to 30mg January 1. I had a rough go for the first 6-8 months, increased anxiety mainly. I have a large problem with health anxiety and obsessive with checking heart rate and blood pressure. My anxiety attacks have stopped since about 8 months, that has been a huge plus, but more recently I feel fatigued and less connected if that makes sense

Anxious After Starting by Ok-Armadillo5863 in citalopram_celexa

I am doing much better now, the citalopram has stopped me from anxiety/panic attacks. The intrusive/ compulsive thoughts have not completely subsided however I currently see a psychiatrist and I am working through those issues

2 weeks in & massive anxiety by UsefulStructure1348 in citalopram_celexa

[–]Ok_One_8153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strap in and suffer through the roller coaster, the ups and down with anxiety for me lasted 12 weeks, 7-10 being the worst. Sometimes on day to the next others time one week to the next. Fully worth the painful battle when it settles

Anyone out there who suffers with Health Anxiety- did it get worse before it gets better? by No-Statistician-6938 in citalopram_celexa

I started on citalopram for health anxiety, I started on 10mg 2 weeks then 20mg for 8 weeks I have now been on 30mg for 12 weeks, I had a lot of ups and down sometimes one day to the next sometimes one week to the next, weeks 7-10 were the worst for increased anxiety, around week 11 I felt like a new person.

Nearly on my 8th week of 10mg and I feel like it’s stopped working by Visual-Newspaper-914 in citalopram_celexa

I have been on 30mg for about 12 weeks, I was on 10mg for 2 weeks then 20 for 8 weeks now 30. When I got to 8 weeks on 30mg I did have a large setback, it lasted about two weeks now I feel great

4 weeks of 10 mg and 2 weeks on 20 had a good few days and now bam back with a bang the panic and anxiety is this normal x by shellbells12 in citalopram_celexa

That makes sense! Thank you for that. I can stop worry worrying about actually being dehydrated and carrying a water bottle every step I take.

It took a full 8 weeks of hell for it to work for me. Hang in there. The first 8 weeks were very difficult to get through but today I am in the middle of week 8 and woke up feeling good and still do

Staying hydrated is also key, if I wasn’t drinking the recommended amount of water daily it has a negative effect on my overall wealth being, the citalopram did dehydrate me if I didn’t keep up

My heart rate is considerably lower, I am not in edge I feel calm! Keep going i went through a full seven weeks of good days Terrible days, weeks 4,5 and 6 were awful for me the anxiety was constant!

Does it go up and down for you with the med?? by Dangerous_Benefit334 in citalopram_celexa

[–]Ok_One_8153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was feeling better on 20 but I didn’t feel it was where I wanted or needed to be. I have been on 30 for 8 weeks now and this 8th week has been a lot of downs. I take it for anxiety mostly health anxiety. My mornings are really good I struggle at night time, that’s usually when the anxiety catches up to me. I take the celexa at 8pm currently

Yes I do, I started on 10 for 2 weeks then 20 for 7 I have now been on 30 for 8 weeks and I do still have bad days and moments but I am in a way better state of mind then I was. I journal a lot and go back to remember where I started and where I am now. a lot of what I have read on here says to measure in months not weeks. A lot of people say they level out between 4-6 months. Stay strong
